Decaf Mexican Altura Royal Select
Decaf Mexican Altura Royal Select
A very nice medium dark roast decaf. It's a smooth cup, a little sweet edge, nutty, with a touch of chocolate. It has a little floral overtone, lower acidity and fuller bodied, pretty hefty in its semi sweet bakers chocolate tone.
MWP is Mountain Water Processed, a cool non-solvent based decaf plant in Mexico. During the water process, the green coffee is pre-soaked in water to expand the beans for caffeine extraction. The hydrated green coffee is then introduced to a unique solution of concentrated coffee solubles that draw out the caffeine while minimizing the loss of flavor compounds. Once the caffeine has been removed the green coffee is re-dried and re-bagged for transport, and the extract solution is filtered of its caffeine and recycled to be used again.
